Rod Stewart extends One Last Time tour into late 2026

Rod Stewart keeps his One Last Time tour on the road through August 2026, including U.S. amphitheaters and a Las Vegas residency, according to official listings.

Rod Stewart is keeping his farewell on the road, extending his One Last Time tour with North American shows and a Las Vegas residency running into late summer 2026, according to updated listings from major promoters.

How the One Last Time tour continues

The current phase of Rod Stewart's One Last Time run is organized around a block of 2026 dates that stretch from March through at least mid-August in North America, with additional shows planned into 2027, as outlined by Live Nation and primary ticketing platforms. One overview notes the tour running from March 12, 2026 through August 14, 2026, with later dates in 2027 including a return to Colorado's Red Rocks Amphitheatre, while another lists a total of 38 concerts in the year with two shows still to come.

A Live Nation tour hub highlights Stewart's 2026 itinerary with amphitheater and arena stops and emphasizes that he is continuing the same farewell branding that has framed his recent runs, including the Las Vegas residency billed alongside the tour dates. The production scale and routing show that, at 81, he is still playing a full-sized international schedule rather than a symbolic farewell lap, connecting theater dates, casino stages and large outdoor venues.

German fans and the 2026 live picture

For fans based in Germany, the official ticketing picture for 2026 is clear: Ticketmaster's German portal lists Rod Stewart as an active touring artist but explicitly notes that there are no upcoming concerts in Germany, pointing instead to international shows later in the year. The same listing then redirects to concerts abroad, such as a date on August 27, 2026, underscoring that travel will be necessary for German residents who want to catch the farewell tour live.

This absence of a 2026 German stop contrasts with Stewart's longstanding popularity in the country, where his classic hits have been staples of radio formats and compilation charts for decades. It also creates space in the German live market for tribute productions and special events built around his catalog, which local venues promote to serve audiences who cannot or do not want to travel to North America or the UK for the real thing.

Where the tour goes next

Looking beyond the lack of German dates, international listings give a sense of how dense Stewart's calendar remains. Live Nation's tour schedule and a dedicated news site for his career both count more than thirty shows announced for 2026 across multiple countries, with additional 2027 performances on the horizon. One breakdown mentions that he has 31 concerts booked across eight countries in 2025 and 2026, underlining that this is a full-scale farewell, not a one-off residency.

Primary ticket sellers show that the route includes a mix of U.S. venues, from historic theaters to large outdoor festivals, and a run of shows in Las Vegas. One ticketing overview highlights prices starting as low as roughly $60 for certain U.S. dates, while premium packages and top sections climb into several hundred dollars, reflecting the continued demand for a singer whose recording career began in the 1960s.

The musical core and key works

Rod Stewart is best known as a British rock and pop vocalist with a distinctive raspy tone, drawing on roots in rhythm and blues, folk-rock and soul. His official biography describes him as a singer, songwriter and producer whose work spans six decades, and it highlights his status as one of the most successful British solo artists of all time.

His catalog includes landmark albums such as Every Picture Tells a Story and Atlantic Crossing, as well as global hit singles like Maggie May, Sailing, Da Ya Think I'm Sexy? and Baby Jane. A special edition titled Alternate Atlantic Crossing is even scheduled as a Record Store Day 2026 vinyl release through a specialist retailer, showing how labels continue to reintroduce his 1970s material to a new generation of collectors.

What comes after the farewell run

According to a detailed 2026 preview from a dedicated Rod Stewart fan news site, a new Faces album involving Stewart alongside Ronnie Wood and Kenney Jones has been announced for 2026, with fresh songs planned. The same report notes that he has been working on at least one new solo album and has spoken in a BBC interview about plans for a major UK tour in 2027, suggesting that his creative activity will extend beyond the current farewell-branded run.
